Playing the "race card" card is many, many times worse since obaMao made it a national scourge outbreak all by himself and his corrupt big mouth, and actions. Ingraham has made this point for years that entertainers should focus on doing what they are paid to do and not inject their politics into it . She wrote a book years ago called "Shut up and sing" making that point. James and Durant didn't like what she said for them to"shut up and dribble"and I have no problem with them coming back at Ingraham except don't claim racism about it. It was not a racist comment but liberals find racism everywhere that less keen eyes see it and pick up the "code words" and "dog whistles" less keen eyes and ears miss. James was a big Hillary supporter who like many other Hillary supporters seems to have problems coming to grips with she lost and Trump won.

The target audience is of a particular political leaning just like every show of its kind. More to reinforce the set of beliefs held by the target audience than to influence. That's why lbj's semi literate bloviating fits so well. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westside Steve Posted February 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 I think calling LeBron James stupid because, and I'm only assuming that the rumors are true from people who went to school with him, he could barely read and write but didn't need to because he had a rare gift for bouncing a ball. Granted nobody has to be a rocket scientist to be a millionaire but kids, if you aren't one of the greatest basketball players of all time it would help to be literate. Regardless of your politics. I have heard first-hand accounts of him being an absolute Punk harassing wait staff and restaurant people with his posse. But that's cool I guess because well, there was slavery back in the 18 hundreds. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not much of a basketball fan and I don't really like mr. James from what I've heard personally. As far as politics I don't care for a lot of political talk just because I feel it alienates at least a portion of their potential fans. Maybe that's a little hypocritical because I'm somewhat outspoken here but this is a pretty small circle. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't tweet their comments - they said them in an interview? and they tweeted the "hashtag" ? and ignorant lebong James says they are too important to ...society? LOL LOL LOL LOL. That is SO stupid. Truth is, LeBong - you are too much in the limelight in sports news (and you got millions, right) that you THINK you are a world political icon. nope. I'd be happy to see LeBong leave and go somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't that he is black - he's a very rich basketball player who thinks he's a political darth vader of America, and runs his mouth. He was a staunch higgardly supporter and is just po'd he lost the election and LeBong James wants to use his athletics to talk for all black folks.

Because you don't have much sense of forethought or anything else you compare the handful of people on this board to actual politicians and celebrities.

I don't think you were following along. Your incessant need to argue has completely detailed this though. Part of me thinks you're clever enough to pull this strategy out when you know you can't debate the topic. But who knows. End of the day.
